In 1900, a typical first class hotel offered steam heat, gas burners, electric call bells and baths on all floors. Today's luxury hotels, some of them centuries old with magnificent d?cor, are visited by the discriminate traveler who expects to be pampered with the most modern conveniences and services that money can buy. Luxury hotels are recognized for their "ultimate spa experience packages," award-winning cuisines, and supremely comfortable rooms (beds with pillow top mattresses!) in the most idyllic settings. The guest's needs are quickly anticipated and addressed as luxury hotels pride themselves on their customer service departments. Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, The Ritz Carlton, JW Marriott and Fairmont Hotels and Resorts are a few hotel chains that are considered "Luxury." If you are interested in seeing the world, this may be the work place for you, as these hotels are found in places ranging from bustling cities like San Francisco to elegant resorts (beaches of Monaco) all over the world! If you also can see yourself working with top notch clientele in a demanding environment (no second chances here!), this sector of the hotel industry may be just your ticket to a successful career. hotel null null null null null null
